Monday ,(9:00am)
ERICAS POV:-
As the priest performed the final rites,I could feel the numbness in my body increasing,I could see my entire world falling apart, I would do anything to switch places with her (my mother) , the woman I loved the most
There were familiar voices consoling me to stay strong,be brave,asking me to pray for mother's eternal peace,telling me that this death ended her constant suffering
I get flashbacks of seeing my mother in the hospital,hear her scream in pain ,how she wished all her misery would end ,how she stayed strong for me cuz she was all I had left of a family after dad...
The 2 storey house we lived in wont feel like a home anymore
Being a Oncologist I couldn't do anything to save my mother's life so I sat there numb staring at my mother's lifeless body ..
As the ceremony came to an end I hear my mother's favourite song play through a voice much soothing than all the other voices I heard that day...a voice that snapped me back to reality...a voice which made letting go of my mother a bit easy...
*song playing*
What a wonderful world :Louis Armstrong
I knew life would be difficult from now on ...I knew seeing my cancer patients every day would remind me of my Mom ....
